Let's party like it's 1620!


A few weeks ago Dan and I went down to Plymouth, the town founded by the pilgrims when they reached America aborad the Mayflower. We saw a replica of the ship "Mayflower 2" (it was astonishingly small for 135 people and their animals). We also saw Plymouth Rock, the supposed landing place. I suppose I feel a closer bond with that half of the passengers that traveled to the new world simply for a better life, with no religious motivation at all.
